I seem to have hard bricked my Redmi Note 4g.
It does not get detected on my PC.
Nothing loads or shows up on the phone. Its completely dead.
When i connect the cable to my PC the red LED blinks just once. Nothing else.
Please Help
can you goto fastboot mode?
most MTK phones have testpoint where you have to jumping the wire from point A to point B and it will trigger preloader driver in sp flash tool. I didnt know where the point is but you can google it or ask someone in gsmhosting forum.
i have redmi note 4G gucii dual sim, but it's stuck in edl mode all the time, the flash is successful but it's still bricked in edl mode... what's the solution...?
i beg your help..
Finally I bricked the rn4 and reading this thread
I have a bricked redmi 3s prime. It is having locked bootloader.
First I had search for local repair center to fix it. But the shop guy said me to replace motherboard of device. But I'm not sure what is the exact issue with device, because I can still use recovery option as well fastboot.
I'm bit technical, so I thought it is software issue. So I thought to un-brick it myself. So I had tried almost many methods to un-brick it but not getting any success till yet.
The methods I have tried mentioned below.
1) From recovery, simply wipe data storage and try to turn on device. Waited for 20 mins on mi logo screen. No Success.?
2) Enter into fastboot mode (Device detected as some random string on PC) and simply try to flash both fastboot roms (Global and Developer) using MiFlash beta Tool. Even fastboot mode unable to flash those official roms. No Success.?
3) Enter into EDL mode using TestPoint method (Device detected as COM6 on PC). Again try with both roms MiFlash. After flashing each rom I had waited over 30 mins on MI logo screen, but nothing happens. No Success.?
One thing common while trying all above methods is that battery power less than 10%. I can not full charge device, because there is no way to turn off device if I'm not succeed with my steps.
So is there anything I'm still missing? Can someone help me with this?
So earlier, I unlocked my Redmi 9T phone using the Xiaomi Official Tool, then flashed TWRP using XiaoMiTool V2, I opened cmd and entered fastboot reboot recovery, it's still in fastboot mode, I tried Power button + volume buttons and still stuck on fastboot and before it boots into fastboot again, it shows a charging battery icon. I plugged in my phone to my pc and selected "My phone is bricked" in XiaoMiTool V2 and waited for 1 hour to finish the download, it tries to install but when it gave me an error, I closed it and tried to reboot my phone, NOW IT'S SHOWING A CHARGING BATTERY ICON AND CAN'T DO ANYTHING! I keep turning on my phone but it only shows the battery and turns itself off quick. PC/ADB can't detect any, can't boot into fastboot, can't boot into system, can't boot into recovery. Please help me, I'm gonna get in BIG trouble. Please help me... Thanks!

You have missed the subforum:
This is here for Mi 9T /Redmi K20
You are asking about Redmi 9T
That's totally different name, phone model, hardware, Android version.
After all, your phone model is about two years newer than our Mi 9T here
Specially you made a big mistake if you maybe downloaded and flashed the TWRP for Mi 9T/Redmi K20 to your Redmi 9T, and bricked your phone
One needs to be careful about the phone models!!!

Generally, you should be able to fix by flashing the stock firmware via MiFlash again
But if you also locked your Bootloader by using the MiFlash last time, you will not be able to flash anything and you will need to seek around for the paid EDL support
Better ask on the XDA (sub)forum for your Redmi 9T:
Redmi 9 Power / 9T
The Redmi 9 Power is a 6.53" phone with a 1080x2340p resolution display. The Qualcomm SM6115 Snapdragon 662 chipset is paired with 4GB of RAM and 65/128GB of storage. The main camera is 48+8+2+2MP and the selfie camera is 8MP. The battery has a 6000mAh capacity.

How can I flash when my phone can't boot into fastboot? Can't boot into anything, it just shows the battery charge screen when I turn it on (even without plugging it in a charger). I have my bootloader unlocked

But you can ask in the right XDA subforum for your phone - where somebody familiar with your device could help you, or you cannot (or you don't want)?!
If you hard bricked your phone then you will need to find somebody to help you with the paid EDL account - usually they cannot advertise on XDA since advertising the paid support is forbidden. You should seek around on TG channels and so
That was the last my answer for you. Cannot help you better for your different phone. Good luck
I had a Redmi 7A and changed for a Redmi 9T. I let the Redmi 7A alone for a long time, and today I took it, but it won't boot. Not only that, but I tried a lot of things like booting into EDL mode, booting into fastboot, disconnecting the battery… But as far as I am, I always get a black screen and ADB or my computer don't recognize it as a phone. I would like to use it to try to install custom ROMs without risking to brick my main phone.
I have some previous threads on my Redmi 7A dead... but no one responded, some did but said I can't fix it, buy a new phone. I am not in a financial condition to buy a new phone. All I can do is fix this phone and continue using it till I get a new phone. But since 3 weeks I am not able to use my Redmi 7A. I was hopeless that this phone could be repaired or could be used again but I went through a few videos on YouTube and saw a ray of hope but still I was helpless I tried booting it into EDL mode using the test point method but nothing worked out. Please I NEED HELP to fix this phone. I have a brief description below of the timeline about how it
crashed, how it was in the service center, what happened after it.
Alright so,
At March 13, It was on AOD (I know it is not supported keep reading), running nusantra os latest version for (Mi-439 aka Redmi 7A, 8) which was last updated on Dec 4, 2022. So when It was on AOD I tried to unlock the phone and it froze. So I rebooted it abnormally. After it was booting it stuck on the Redmi logo but it wasn't going ahead, not showing the boot animation. So I tried to boot it in recovery mode, when it was booting in recovery mode the phone was just shutting down and trying to reboot itself again but it couldn't. So I tried to wipe everything using fastboot commands and the command which I used was -w. So after that instead of waiting at the redmi logo it was stuck in a bootloop, in fact booting in the bootloader (fastboot mode). So after that I lost hope and gave it to the nearby service center. Please note that the phone was turning on before giving it to the service center. After like one day I went there to check if it was done, they say that it's a hardware problem, they are not able to fix it, When I came home the phone didn't boot neither in the fastboot mode nor It was turning on. So I thought it's not charged so I charged it for 1.5 hours but still there was no sign of life. I asked them about the phone not turning on they told me that it's a hardware issue and hung up the phone, said I am in a hurry I will call you later. Till this day I received no call. So Now I am posting this because I see some hope of EDL mode. I even tried to boot it in the EDL mode but still it was neither booting in the EDL mode nor my computer is detecting my phone (I have all the drivers installed). Please help ASAP.

1. does the led light up when you charge it?
2. what does you pc device manager show when you plug it in? (do you hear the windows sound?)
try every button combination that is possible. i mean two buttons at the same time, three buttons, all buttons... and for about even up to 1 minute (because this brought my 7A back from just led light when charging to pc detected a usb device)
i can't reproduce your brick but i managed to debrick via edl mode once on a "complete dead" (only led lights up when charging) so i think you can do that too.
also as long as you work with the EDL Tool, deactivate your Firewall (and don't forget to activate it again) just so be sure.
3. are you trying to enter edl mode via adb terminal? i would say you have to open the back cover and enter edl mode via hardware bridge from edl point to ground.
and as far as i can remember you have to be really quick between "starting" (booting) edl mode on the phone and make the phone "accept" edl mode. i think i first made the hardware bridge and then pluged the usb in.
i will dig deeper again in the next few days so i can give you better info's
